A good place for getting some occasional beers, but tough to frequent (Ive tried). Beers are pretty pricey, theres no free music, and its often dead so its just weirdly quiet. Awesome interior and feel when its a bit busier and someone (usually me) pays for tunes, though.

My favorite and the only place i like on Washington St. this bar is very chill, personally the people Ive meet here always seem to have such great taste in music(Indie that is). The bartenders are very nice, this one girl that works here that usually wears a beanie makes the best dos X with salt, simple dos X with salt but I am telling you they are the best!! I never get bored of coming here people are always friendly and you will always meet new people.
